Populist Reform of the Democratic Party
In reply to the discussion: Does the Party discourage primaries and, if so, how realistic is populist reform? [View all]merrily
(45,251 posts)16. Can we please not bring anything about Kerry here? I know you and karennj are great fans of his,
but I don't want to have to either comment on karennj's long post defending Kerry on another thread, or give the impression that I agree with everything in it. It's her view on another thread. Please, let's leave it at that.
Suffice it to say, the issue for this thread is about the Party machinery and intentions, as they seem to have developed and manifested over the years and many continue to develop and manifest. That is so much broader than Kerry. Let's just leave him out of it.
thanks.
